Abstract

Apparatus and method for preventing unauthorized access or erasure of digital image files stored in the memory (130) of a digital camera (100) used for taking motion still photographs, motion pictures, etc., while permitting an authorized person to access, erase and/or reset the camera (100) for further use. Access and erasure of the digital files is enabled only when a predetermined authorization signal (126), code or decryption key (136) is received via an external interface (170).
